WEEK 3



WEEK 3
We took our first quiz. It lasted 8 minutes because it was easy to solve. I got a good score that made me feel I am going in the correct way through the first steeps of this subject. We started a new forum to discuss in pairs. The main topic was PLAGIARISM. We red some web pages that illustrated us about citing and giving credit about good thoughts we use but are not ours. I developed this assignment with Natasha. She helped me a lot because she reads efficiently and quickly, so we finished very fast. Teacher Wilma told us that we must investigate about APA Style and make a Power Point Presentation to explain to our partners what we get. She organized oral lessons for next class, so there were three volunteers and she chose one more on Thursday. I participated with my presentation because I got a very useful video on You Tube that helped me a lot. I will put here the link for you to watch it.
APA Referencing: The Basics
This week we learned the basics of APA Style as a tool to mention author´s when using their phrases and citations. It is so important to give credit to someone else to avoid offending and commiting a crime such Plagiarism. Our papers must have citation to show that we researched about any topic, but we must mention the authors of everything that does not belong or come from our mind. Here I place another link for you to see a video about keeping our papers good presented and free of Plagiarism as well.
